How guest reviews work
Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Verified reviewMostly the view but everything else was lovely too.
No way to secure patio windows when there was a breeze. In fear of them banging and breaking. Strategic placement of patio chairs solved problem.

Verified reviewThe apartment was very spacious and very well equipped. The views were fantastic and the beds comfortable. It was an easy walk down to the marina and within easy reach of a great range of restaurants.
The pressure in the shower was very low when someone else happened to be bathing at the same time in the other bathroom. On the last morning we were there, the cooler in the fridge had broken down overnight. There was some confusion over the recycling. The information booklet led us to think that it was our responsibility to recycle into the outside bins. However, the bins were not well marked as to what went into which bin! We brought some of our recycling home to be dispose of!

Verified reviewThe location was stunning with gorgeous views over the River Dart, and the flat was much bigger than we expected. I travelled with a friend and with one huge bedroom with and ensuite, and another at the opposite end of the flat with own bathroom next door, it felt as if we both had our own areas, with large kitchen and comfy living room in the middle. We enjoyed having a glass of wine on the balcony overlooking the river in the evenings. Quiet road with own parking space. Hosts were ever so helpful - especially when we left a pair of sunglasses behind. Would defintely stay again.
There wasn't anything to dislike, although other visitors should be aware that the apartment is on the 2nd floor, so quite a few stairs but the view makes them worth it!

Verified reviewThe apartment is beautiful and the views over Dartmouth and Kingswear are superb. I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone wanting to visit Dartmouth. The kitchen is equipped with everything you would need for a self-catering stay. It is a five minute walk into the town although the hill is fairly steep (be warned!).
A very minor criticism/observation but Mount Boone/Ridge Hill are currently undergoing major road works (until mid-July 2024) and part of the road is closed. It would have been nice if we had been forewarned that access to the property would be a tad awkward and to be given advice on the best way to access the property

Verified reviewI didn't collect the e-mail message regarding the check out list / bins until I arrived home. A note in the black folder about the bins would have been helpful as I did check that the night before we left but it didn't mention what to do with the bins, so sorry I didn't empty them.....
Thank you for your valued feedback and we hope you enjoyed your stay at The Lookout. We hope to see you again soon.

Verified reviewThe apartment was lovely, light and airy and the views were stunning. More than ample space for our family of 4 and our dog couldn't have been made more welcome! We would definitely recommend and hope to return.
Not an issue for us, but the metal steps up to the apartment could be a problem for a family with very young children or an older relative (as could the walk back from town!)

No hairdryer but that’s my fault for not checking it would have one.
